Slouchee, a simple knitting pattern for the lovable nonconformist in all of us.

  • Stand up straight!
  • Knit a plain row between lace!
  • Don’t make waves!
  • You can’t have any meat if you don’t eat your pudding!

But sometimes, wouldn’t you rather just slouch?

Slouchee is knit using an unusual lace cast on technique and has lace knitting worked every round. The hat is great for first time chart knitters and includes a photo tutorial for casting on.
